| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses a pocket-sized grounds maintenance publication called "The Grounds Department Information Booklet," developed by Keith Bartlett, golf course superintendent at St. Georges Golf and Country Club in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Emphasizes the potential ability of the booklet to lessen staff training time, describing it as "a small, simple, and inexpensive way to vastly improve...communication and maintenance programs." Lists several features of the booklet, focusing on maps, mowing strategies, job responsibilities, required equipment, employee rules, and emergency response information. Reports that "the information is presented in brief, outline form with only the necessary details." States that "when Keith [Bartlett] and St. Georges hosted the Canadian Open this summer, the booklet proved especially helpful for the many volunteers who all were provided a copy." |
